Prashanth Neel’s KGF: Chapter 2, starring Yash, has been dominating the box office ever since its release on April 14. The film seems poised to cross Rs 1000 crore at the global box office. At present, in its second week, KGF: Chapter 2 has crossed over Rs 900 crore internationally, and trade experts expect the film to cross Rs 1000 crore in a few days. Dangal (Rs 2024 crore), Baahubali: The Conclusion (Rs 1810 crore) and RRR (over Rs 1100 crore) are already part of the club. If KGF: Chapter 2 does so, it will become the fourth Indian film to achieve this feat.
